Opsætning og tilslutning
Follow these steps to properly connect your RV2130SP unit to the RV park's power pedestal and your RV.
- Inspect the Power Pedestal: Before connecting, visually inspect the RV park's power pedestal for any visible damage or signs of wear. Ensure the circuit breaker for the 30 Amp outlet is in the "OFF" position.
- Connect the RV2130SP Input: Plug the male end of the RV2130SP's power cord into the 30 Amp outlet on the RV park's power pedestal. Ensure a secure connection.
- Connect Your RV to RV2130SP Output: Plug your RV's 30 Amp shore power cord into the female receptacle on the RV2130SP unit.
- Aktiver strøm: Once both connections are secure, switch the circuit breaker on the RV park's power pedestal to the "ON" position.
- Bekræft drift: Observe the LED indicators on the RV2130SP unit to confirm proper power and boosting status. Refer to the "Operation and LED Indicators" section for details.

Operation and LED Indicators
The RV2130SP features a diagnostic panel with LED lights to indicate the status of the incoming power and the unit's operation. Understanding these indicators is crucial for safe and effective use.
LED Light Indication Guide
| Lys | Status | Beskrivelse |
|---|---|---|
| Line Power | Grøn TIL | Indicates incoming power is present. |
| Jord | Grøn TIL | Indicates proper ground connection. |
| Neutral | Grøn TIL | Indicates proper neutral connection. |
| Boost | Grøn TIL | Unit is actively boosting voltage due to low incoming power. |
| Surge Capacity Used Up | Rød TIL | Surge protection module has absorbed a significant surge and needs replacement. |
| Hot / Ground / Surge | Rød TIL | Indicates a hot/ground fault or a major surge event. |
| Hot / Neutral / Surge | Rød TIL | Indicates a hot/neutral fault or a major surge event. |
| Manglende jord | Rød TIL | Indicates the power pedestal has no ground connection. |
| Omvendt polaritet | Rød TIL | Indicates hot and neutral wires are reversed at the pedestal. |
| Missing Neutral | Rød TIL | Indicates the power pedestal has no neutral connection. |
Automatisk voltage Boosting
The RV2130SP automatically monitors incoming voltage. Hvis voltage drops to 113 Volts or below, the unit will automatically engage its boosting function, increasing volumentage by 10%. If the incoming voltage is 114 Volts or higher, the unit will provide a 2% boost to maintain optimal power delivery to your RV.
Opretholdelse
Surge Module Replacement
The RV2130SP features a replaceable surge protection module. If the "Surge Capacity Used Up" (Red) LED illuminates, it indicates that the surge module has absorbed a significant power surge and needs to be replaced to ensure continued surge protection for your RV.
To Replace the Surge Module:
- Disconnect the RV2130SP from all power sources (both your RV and the power pedestal).
- Locate the surge module access panel on the unit (refer to your product's physical diagram if unsure).
- Carefully remove the screws securing the access panel.
- Disconnect the old surge module from its connectors.
- Connect the new surge module, ensuring proper orientation and secure connections.
- Securely reattach the access panel with the screws.
- Reconnect the RV2130SP to power and verify that the "Surge Capacity Used Up" light is now off.

Fejlfinding
Use the LED indicators on the unit to diagnose common issues. If a problem persists, contact customer support.
| Problem | Indication (LEDs) | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|---|
| No Power to RV | Ingen lysdioder lyser | No power from pedestal; Unit not connected; RV breaker tripped. | Check pedestal breaker; Ensure unit is fully plugged in; Check RV's main breaker. |
| Lav voltage Tilstand | Boosting LED ON (and other power LEDs green) | Indgående bdtage er under 114V. | This is normal operation. The unit is boosting power. No action required unless voltage remains critically low after boosting. |
| Surge Protection Activated | Surge Capacity Used Up (Red) LED ON | Unit absorbed a large power surge. | Replace the surge protection module as described in the Maintenance section. |
| Wiring Fault at Pedestal | Missing Ground (Red) OR Reverse Polarity (Red) OR Missing Neutral (Red) OR Hot/Ground/Surge (Red) OR Hot/Neutral/Surge (Red) | Faulty or unsafe wiring at the power pedestal. | Immediately disconnect the unit. Do NOT connect your RV. Notify park management of the wiring issue. |
| Unit Not Boosting | Boosting LED OFF, but voltage er lav. | Unit malfunction or voltage is not low enough to trigger 10% boost. | Ensure incoming voltage is below 114V. If still not boosting, contact customer support. |
